| WHAT IS BIOFLEX® GEL?
Bioflex®
Gel is a unique massage gel that has been specially
developed for bones, joints and muscles to help keep them
flexible and healthy. It contains Glucosamine; a naturally
occurring amino sugar formed from glucose and L-glutamine
in the body and is renowned for safeguarding joint health.
Glucosamines main function in the body is to help maintain
healthy joints and muscles by supporting the constant
regeneration of connective tissues in and around the
joints and providing essential nutrients for overall joint
health.
WHAT IS BIOFLEX® GEL FOR?
Bioflex®
Gel is essentially for aching bones,
joints and muscles, as Glucosamine is utilized to help
produce tendons, ligaments and connective tissue in and
around the joints, every day wear and tear may cause these
joints, muscles and connective tissue to become tender,
Bioflex®
Gel is designed to support these hard working
joints to help keep them flexible and healthy.
WHO NEEDS TO USE BIOFLEX® GEL?
The need for Glucosamine becomes increasingly
important as we age, when our body’s natural stores
decline, however
Bioflex®
Gel is recommended for both men
and women of all ages, but especially suitable for:
•
Those who wish to take special care of their joints and
muscles during later life. • Athletes, active sports
persons and gym members who tend to use their joints and
muscles continuously to maximum. • For those who have gone
through cartilage, ligament and other joint related
surgery. • Ideal for those who may have had accidental
injuries or sprains.
HOW DOES BIOFLEX® GEL WORK?
Glucosamine provides the building blocks needed
to repair and produce tendons, ligaments and connective
tissue; it also improves synthesis of synovial fluid.
Glucosamine is a major precursor of hyaluronic acid,
this is found in the viscous fluid (synovial fluid) that
cushions our ligaments, cartilage, tendons and spinal
discs.
The Glucosamine is able to facilitate the manufacture
of the hyaluronan, collagen and proteoglycans, which are
necessary for the restoration of articular cartilage and
the lubricant synovial fluid, however, if there is
breakdown of hyaluronic acid due to free radical damage or
in the event of any form of inflammation, injury,
operation or damage from sports, means there is a
breakdown of synovial fluid into a watery crumbly
consistency, hence the growing wear and tear on our joints
and increasing creakiness as we age. Glucosamine works to
help renew and repair cartilage, and maintain the
lubricating properties of fluids in and around the joints.
The lack of Glucosamine in our body leads to the gradual
thinning of cartilage, which lines our joints and
eventually promotes to Osteoarthritis.
‘Osteoarthritis is a common disease that develops when
linings of joints fail to maintain normal structure,
leading to pain and decreased mobility’. It is associated
with aging and injury (it used to be called
“wear-and-tear” arthritis), and can occur secondary to
many other conditions. (Pharmacy Health Notes)
‘Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA) is a chronic inflammatory
condition; it is an autoimmune disease, in which the
immune system attacks the joints and sometimes other parts
of the body’. (Pharmacy Health Notes).
Bioflex®
Gel contains a specially formulated blend of Glucosamine Hydrochloride with added menthol oils, which
is used traditionally for it’s anti-inflammatory
properties, soothing action and muscle relaxant, together
it provides support when the gel is massaged into tired,
aching joints and muscles.
